mandatory hearing is required, or the defendant appears at a
hearing before an official, a defendant who does not hold a
commercial driver license or commercial learner permit may elect to
attend a driver improvement course pursuant to section 318.14(9),
Florida Statutes, within 30 days of receiving a citation or, if a
hearing was requested, at any time before trial. Pursuant to this
rule, any defendant electing to attend a driver improvement course
under section 318.14(9), Florida Statutes, will have adjudication
withheld and not be assessed points.
(b) Location of Course. A defendant who is sentenced to or
elects to attend a driver improvement course shall have the right to
attend an approved course in the location of the defendant’s choice,
including the internet when the elected or court-ordered drive
improvement course is provided online.
